Disa 2013

My first Disa flower of 2013 is Disa tripetaloides

It's not exactly the largest of the Disa :D

Hi Fred,

The uniflora is pretty average, but hte colour is nice. I'll try to take some more photos over the weekend, but the really largeflowered ones haven't opened yet. It is a great selection you have posted so far. And really good pictures.

Disa x watsonii "Sandra"



Larger flowered than Disa x watsonii "Bramley" with colouring a little lighter pink but still fluorescent.

Sandra definately have  anivce colour and i assume that it has a fairly short stalk.

Almost all the Disa are in bloom now, even though there's not that many this year.

Here's Disa Little Lotta and a yellow uniflora:
